We can detect five different tastes with the taste receptor cells on out tongue.    The taste receptor cells (TRCs) are part of the sensory organs appear mostly on the tongue, the roof of the mouth and in the back of the throat. These taste receptors give us people the ability to evaluate what we eat and drink.The five basic tastes are: sweet, sour, bitter, salty and umami( savory).

Where is DNA found? A. vacuole B. chromosomes C. cell membranes D. Golgi body
dmitriy555 [2]
<span>in eukaryote cells DNA is found in the nucleus of the cell, the form the DNA (e.g. chromosomes vs. chromatin) is in depends on what stage of the cell cycle you are talking about. In cells that have mitochondria, DNA is found there as well. Mitochondrial DNA is distinct from nuclear DNA and doesn't code for the same things. In prokaryotic cells DNA is found in the cytoplasm. Don't forget that other entities may also contain DNA such as viruses.

Although DNA is technically confined to the places outlined above, the reality is cells are dying all the time and spilling their contents including their DNA. As a result DNA is all over us and everything we touch, and the same goes for other organisms.

Bacterial cells DON'T typically have a nucleus. They are called prokaryotic because of that (prokaryotic means "before nucleus" where as eukaryotic means "true nucleus"). Their DNA is typically in the cytoplasm usually as a single circular shaped chromosome. The also sometimes have smaller peices of circular DNA called plasmids that are also in their cytoplasm which they can exchange with each other.. </span>

Determine the standard deviation by filling in the table as part of your calculation. Consider the following data 6, 6, 10, 8, 1
timurjin [86]

Question options:

A. 1.63

B. 0.47

C. 0.94

D. 1.15

Answer:

<u><em>A. 1.63</em></u>

Explanation:

To find the standard deviation,

we have the data:

6, 6, 10, 8, 10, 8

sum = 6 + 6 + 10 + 8 + 10 +8

       = 48

mean = 48 / 6

         = 8

Formula for standard deviation:

σ2 = Σ(xi - μ)2  / N

   =  Σ (6-8)2 +....+  (8-8)2    /   6

   = 16 / 6

σ2= 2.67

σ = \sqrt{2.67}

σ = 1.63

What two actions are required to work together to move water to the top of tall plants
LenKa [72]
A tectonic plate boundary always forms when two continental plates collide. Neither plate sub ducts because the crust have approximately the same density. Instead, the rocks are smashed together causing them to recrystallize due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates.
